Default The RS4 writeup in the newest European Car sucks.

He compared it to the RS6 (which he called a pig; not that I disagree, but...), and then he said the "new RS4 uses the same V8 as the A8" (or S6, can't remember...) and that the "new RS4 only makes 30 hp less than the old twin turbo S4." (Ummm, maybe he meant RS6?)

Anyway, he tried describing the roads he was driving and did a horrible job. I'd be willing to bet there weren't more than 5 lines in the whole article about how the car handled/drove.

Pictures were ok, but less than impressive.

S4 content: I wrote S4 above - doesn't that count?
